HOWL FOR THE WOLVES – Especially Americans, but all nationalities can contribute by sending a message – read on.
On May 4, government agents will be free to open fire. Once the public hunts begin, more than 600 wolves could be killed. Not even newborn wolf pups and their nursing mothers will be protected from the crossfire.
One pack alone lost all 24 of its pups!
Please call on the Interior Department to go back to the drawing board and submit this cruel plan to the kind of rigorous scientific review the Obama Administration has promised.
Because you have always stood up for wildlife, I’m contacting you first to take part in The Big Howl campaign.
After you send your own message, I will let you know about an easy way to spread the word to your friends and family. We need at least one million messages to save the wolves — so get ready to rally your friends and family to add their own voices to The Big Howl.
P.S. Hearing the wolf howl after you take action is a poignant reminder of why we must act swiftly to save these treasured icons of the American West — before their federal protections are lifted on May 4. So please speak out today, and then tell everyone you know to take part in The Big Howl.

Dear animal lover,
EU parliamentarians Alain Hutchinson, David Hammerstein und Neil Parish have written a declaration on the welfare of pets and stray animals (PDF).
A vote on this declaration will be held in EU parliament shortly — the time limit to sign this declaration is May 7th, 2009.
Sample Letter:
Dear Member of the EU Parliament,
I consider this declaration not only as an act of humanity but as a necessary action in a modern and forward-looking Europe. Knowing which parties and parliamentarians plead for animal protection issues considerably influences my electoral behaviour.
Thank you very much indeed!

NOW PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION !
Thank You.
Despite the existence of animal protection laws stray animals have become a questionable source of income in many European countries: their capture, custody and killing offer good business opportunities by involving public money originally designated to improve the stray animals situation.

YOU can make a difference – ** URGENT ACTION REQUIRED **
A vote, by all MEPs in the full European Parliament, is due to take place in April or May this year.
Respect for Animals 
is encouraging people to sign a petition in support of a full ban at: http://www.bansealtrade.eu
It literally takes seconds to do – SAV ask everyone to please sign this petition on line and get the EU to impose the the ban on the import and trade in seal products across Europe. Make a huge difference for seals and for the future.
Monday, March 02, 2009
As harp seal pups are being born on the ice floes off Canada’s east coast, and seal hunters are preparing for another commercial-scale slaughter at the end of this month, Respect for Animals welcomes the vote which paves the way for a full Parliamentary vote on the seal trade issue in the very near future.
The committee rejected a report by Liberal Democrat MEP, Diana Wallis (Yorkshire & the Humber). Wallis’ report proposed certification and labelling of seal products, an option branded “unenforceable” by other MEPs, many of whom have called for an unconditional ban on the trade in all seal products.
Nicki Brooks, director of Respect for Animals, said today: “The vote today has shown that Parliamentarians have listened to the concerns of the citizens of Europe, the majority of whom want to see a full, unconditional ban on the trade in all seal products.
“The annual commercial kill that takes place in Canada, every March, is the largest slaughter of marine mammals on the planet – over one million seal pups have been clubbed or shot to death over the last four years alone. Legislation stopping the trade across Europe will close down markets for the pelts of these seal pups.”
Research by veterinarians has shown that the commercial slaughter of seal pups is inherently inhumane.
In 2006, a record 425 MEPs voted for an end to commercial seal slaughter; in July 2008, the European Commission issued a proposal to bring an end to the import and trade in seal products across Europe.
A vote, by all MEPs in the full Parliament, is due to take place in April or May this year.
Respect for Animals is encouraging people to sign a petition in support of a full ban at: http://www.bansealtrade.eu

Could you help by spreading this petition? It is from “Norges Miljøvernforbund” (an organization to protect environment and threatened species) and it is about the few remaining wolves in Norway.

Please Pass Grace’s Bill to outlaw Gas chambers in GA
Target: Tom McCall Chairman of House of Committee of Agriculture
Sponsored by: animal lovers Grace’s Law – Ga. House Bill 606 – this is a bill that would outlaw the use of gas chambers for euthanasia by Georgia’s animal control facilities. The bill is named after a dog who survived the gas chamber. Quite the opposite – the shrieks and screams of the unfortunates put to death in this way are a testimony to the lie Only ONE PERCENT of all shelters in the U.S. still use this method. There are 15 shelters in Georgia that use the gas chambers. Georgia needs to come into the 21st century, and MUST stop literally torturing animals to death. Georgia Voters for Animal Welfare needs YOUR help to end the madness. Here is your opportunity to make a difference. Now comes the critical part. Last year, a similar bill died in committee. We only have until March 12 to get the bill out of committee, so time is of the essence.
Tom McCall is the Chairman of the House Committee on Agriculture. His address is: 226 State Capitol, Georgia 30334 Phone: (404) 656-5115 Fax: (404) 463-4122
Please also do the same for the Governor as his support is crucial as well.
His address: Governor Sonny Perdue State Capitol Atlanta, GA 30334

Renewed Killing of stray animals in Serbia:
In the Serbian city of Nis the killing of animals living in the streets and animals living in pounds continues, despite the fact that the Mayor of Nis, urged by animal protection associations all over Europe, had promised to solve the problem of overpopulation by castration.
Nach wie vor werden in der serbischen Stadt Nis Streunertiere und Tiere in und aus den Tiertötungen umgebracht- und das alles, obwohl der Bürgermeister der Stadt Nis- auf den Druck von Tierschützern aus ganz Europe- zugesichert hatte, mit Kastrationen auf das Probem der Überpopulation in Zukunft reagieren zu wollen!!!!
Animal Care Austria learned recently that the City of Nis will provide millions of Dinars in 2009 for killing instead of castrating stray animals! Therefore, Animal Care Austria is asking you again for your help to stop these useless and unnecessary killings of stray animals in Nis (Serbia).
http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/renewed-killing-of-stray-animals-in-serbia
ACA has several on-going projects in Austria and in other countries, including the one in Nis. (For further details see http://www.animalcare-austria.at.)
Heavy protests by local animal protectors, ignored by the authorities, could not prevent a recent series of mass killings in Nis, which were carried out under the pretext of hygienic reasons. Since the authorities of Nis have failed to introduce timely castration programs (a common practice in countries with a low level of animal protection), the number of stray animals has risen dramatically.
However, the killing of animals to reduce overpopulation is unacceptable!
Animal Care Austria strongly supports castration as one of our main missions (“for every animal adopted in Austria, a local dog is castrated”), and we must act now! It is our opinion that the only chance to improve animal protection in Nis, and to finally stop these medieval and cruel killings, is to join forces with numerous domestic and foreign animal protection associations and to apply pressure on the local authorities. Therefore, we would like to ask you, as private persons or representatives of your organization, for your help.
Please support ACA and other animal rights associations in their efforts to stop these horrible actions and to improve the living conditions of stray animals. Through the writing of joint petitions, the reporting on the situation in Nis at home and abroad, and the relentless pressuring of local authorities in Nis to initiate a castration project, we will succeed.

ERNEUTE TÖTUNGEN VON STREUNERTIEREN IN SERBIEN:
NACH WIE VOR WERDEN IN DER SERBISCHEN STADT NIS STREUNERTIERE
UND TIERE IN UND AUS DEN TIERTÖTUNGEN UMGEBRACHT- UND DAS ALLES, OBWOHL DER BÜRGERMEISTER DER STADT NIS – AUF DEN DRUCK VON TIERSCHÜTZERN AUS GANZ EUROPA – ZUGESICHERT HATTE, MIT KASTRATIONEN AUF DAS PROBLEM DER ÜBERPOPULATION IN ZUKUNFT REAGIEREN ZU WOLLEN!!!!!!
WIE ACA GERADE ERST ERFAHREN HAT, SOLLEN IN DER STADT NIS FÜR
DAS JAHR 2009 MEHRERE MILLIONEN!! DINAR ZUM TÖTEN VON STREUNERTIEREN ZUR VERFÜGUNG STEHEN, NICHT ABER FÜR KASTRATIONEN !
Nun bittet ACA erneut um Ihre Mithilfe im Kampf gegen das
Sinnlose und unnötige Töten von Streunertieren in NIS (SERBIEN).
http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/renewed-killing-of-stray-animals-in-serbia
BITTE PROTESTIEREN SIE IM NAMEN DER UNZÄHLIGEN UNSCHULDIGEN
TIERE MIT UNTEN STEHENDEM TEXTVORSCHLAG und senden SIE ihn an die Angeführten E-MAIL- ADRESSEN.
Textvorschlag:
Fehlende Präventivmaßnahmen können und dürfen keinesfalls durch
Das Beseitigen von herrenlosen Tieren ersetzt werden. Der Mensch an
sich und somit die Verantwortlichen Vorort haben durch groß angelegte Kastrationsprojekte dafür Sorge zu tragen, dass die Überpopulation herrenloser Tiere nicht noch mehr zunimmt.
Mit diesem Protest fordern Tierschützer aus Österreich und dem angrenzenden EU- Raum die Verantwortlichen der Stadt NIS zum Um- und Überdenken Ihrer Handlungen auf, damit nicht weitere Unschuldige Tiere getötet werden!
Bitte richten Sie Ihren Protest (schriftlich und telefonisch)
an:MAYOR Milos Simonovics , Bürgermeister der Stadt Nis (mayor@ni.rs) mobil: 0038/1/18504411

Animal Care Austria ( ACA ) betreut einige Projekte im In- und Ausland, eines unter anderem in NIS. ( Nähere Einzelheiten unter http://www.animalcare-austria.at) . Nun sind in Nis in letzter Zeit gehäuft Massentiertötungen vorgekommen, die alle aus Gründen der Hygiene-Vorschriften angeblich indiziert und somit scheinbar abgesichert, gegen den massiven, aber letztendlich unbeachtet gebliebenen Protest der Tierschützer Vorort, vorgenommen wurden. Da man sich wie überall in diesen Ländern, in denen Tierschutz noch ein Fremdwort ist – nie von staatlicher Seite im Vorfeld mit Kastrationsprogrammen auseinandergesetzt hat, ist jetzt die Zahl der Streunertiere massiv angewachsen, doch sich auf diese Weise der Überpopulation von Hunden und Katzen zu entledigen, ist inakzeptabel!
Da ACA Kastrationen ein großes Anliegen sind und sich darauf die eigentliche Philosophie begründet( für jedes vermittelte Tier wird zusätzlich noch eines Vorort kastriert), werden und können wir dem Treiben in NIS nicht länger zusehen! Unserer Meinung nach wäre ein massives Auftreten von vielen Tierschutzorganisationen im In-und Ausland als Druckmittel bei den Verantwortlichen Vorort die einzige Chance, etwas zum Positiven zu bewirken und endlich diese mittelalterlichen und unmenschlichen Vorgangsweisen abzustellen.
Daher unsere Frage und Bitte an Sie als Privatperson oder auch an Ihre Organisation: Wären Sie bereit, gemeinsam mit Animal Care Austria und anderen Vereinen den Kampf gegen dieses schreckliche Tierelend aufzunehmen und den Tieren Vorort ein vielleicht doch noch erträgliches Leben zu ermöglichen? Gemeinsame Petitionen, Publikationen über die Lage in Nis , Druck Vorort bei den Verantwortlichen und letztendlich ein Kastrationsprojekt würden sicherlich den gewünschten Erfolg bringen.
Für alle Anfragen stehen wir gerne jederzeit zur Verfügung ( ACA Handy 0676 39 44 570) Herzliche Grüße Renate Grell Carol Byers Claudia Schraml
Vorstände von ACA
Bitte um zahlreiche Verteilung und Weiterleitung unter anderen Tierschutzvereinen und Privatpersonen.
Please, protest against this cruelty to innocent animals, and send the following message to the e-mail addresses listed.
Suggested Text:
The lack of preventive measures does not justify the killing of stray animals. All humans, especially those in power, are obliged to help in reducing the overpopulation of stray animals by large-scale castration projects.
With this letter of protest animal lovers and animal protection associations from Austria and its European neighbors urge the authorities in the City of Nis to reconsider and change their actions in order to stop the killing of innocent animals.
Please, send your letter of protest to:
